Equation
Let the number = x
(2/3)x + x = 20 Change the x to thirds.
(2/3)x + 3/3x = 20 3/3 = 1 Now combine the like terms.
(2 + 3)/3 = 20 2/3 + 3/3 = 5/3
(5/3) x = 20 Multiply both sides by 3/5
(5/3)*(3/5)x = 20*3/5 Complete the multiplication on the right
x = 4 * 3 Combine
x = 12 Answer
One of the fractions could be 1/2
Hoped this helped at all :)
